Guest guest Posted June 14, 2005 Report Share Posted June 14, 2005 Hi , Now that is interesting, yes they are creating two gaps either side of my two front teeth......so that could suggest that my jaw will be segmented? Thank god for this site, as i say i haven't even seen the OS yet so have no idea what they are planning to do, it would be nice to be kept in the picture!! Thanks , that has helped, it will be some months yet and so i can plan my hen do and holidays now!

Guest guest Posted June 14, 2005 Report Share Posted June 14, 2005 My OS will be segmenting the jaw where the spaces were created. I know some OS will extract the bicuspids, which mine have already been extracted years ago when I was in braces for the first go round.
